There’s a Boat That’s Leavin’ Soon for New York

George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York
Come with me, that's where we belong, sister
You an' me, Kin, live that high life in New York
Come with me, there we can't go wrong, sister

I'll buy you the swellest mansion, up on upper Fifth Avenue
An' thru Harlem we'll go struttin', we'll go a struttin'
An' there'll be nuttin' too good for you
I'll dress up in silks and satins in the latest Paris styles
And de blues you'll be forgettin', you'll be forgettin'
There'll be no frettin', just nothin' but smiles

Come along with me, that's the place
Don't be a fool, come along, come along
There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York
Come with me, that's where we belong, sister
That's where we belong
